Question

My server is in US and I am accessing the application in India through
web browser, in that case what TimeZone.getDefault() will return?
If it returns Time Zone based on India on basis of what it will return?

I have changed in control panel setting to different locale and
different time zone of the system even though it is not changing based
on my settings.

I have written the code as fallows…

def dateFormat = DateFormat.getDateTimeInstance(DateFormat.DEFAULT,DateFormat.DEFAULT,Locale.getDefault())
dateFormat.setTimeZone(TimeZone.getDefault())

Answer 1

It’s going to return the timezone of the JVM TimeZone.getDefault() is executed on. So if the application is running on a server in India, it will be something like “Asia/Calcutta”.
